1. When using this curve and generating your public key, -you- have to choose your private key randomly, in a way that it is impossible for anyone to guess it. The generateor G is a specific point on the elliptic curve, defined in the secp256k1 curve.

Does generating multiple public addresses from the same private key create a secuirity risk? I've recently been trying to understand the secuirity behind bitcoin public and private addresses. I have discovered that one may generate multiple different public addresses for any given private key.

Three very small observations: In your function generateprivatekeywif, you never use hashed, you re-compute it for the return value. In a nice self-contained module like this one, you should definitely add docstrings to your functions.Have a look at PEP257 to see how they are defined. You currently do from ecdsa.keys import SigningKey, but never use it. Feb 12, 2015  How to create a Bitcoin address from a Public Key? As seen in our guides to elliptic curve cryptography and how to create a Bitcoin Private key – a public key is in fact just coordinates on the Bitcoin curve calculated through multiplying the generator point by the private key number.

Modern cryptocurrency wallets should use hierarchical deterministic (HD) keys instead.

Introduction

btckeygenie is a standalone Bitcoin keypair/address generator written in Go.btckeygenie generates an ECDSA secp256k1 keypair, dumps the public key incompressed and uncompressed Bitcoin address, hexadecimal, and base64 formats,and dumps the private key in Wallet Import Format (WIF), Wallet Import FormatCompressed (WIFC), hexadecimal, and base64 formats.

btckeygenie includes a lightweight Go package called btckey to easily generatekeypairs, and convert them between compressed and uncompressed varieties ofBitcoin Address, Wallet Import Format, and raw bytes.

See documentation on btckey here: https://godoc.org/github.com/vsergeev/btckeygenie/btckey

Addressgen is a utility to generate private keys and their correspondingaddresses for cryptocurrencies based on secp256k1. Currently, only Bitcoin,Dogecoin, and Litecoin are supported, but in the future I will add support formore.

Addressgen is tested on Linux and Windows, requires Python 3.3 and a copy oflibeay32.dll (Windows, obtained from OpensSL packages) or libssl.so (linux,openssl package).
